I've also read this paper with great interest.

Although there are a few potential bugs in the algorithms and in the implementations presented, the idea is both simple and efficient.

Thus I've implemented a new version which hopefully solves some of the weaknesses I found and has a better theoretical behavior. It is dedicated to PostgreSQL, but may be adapted to other databases.

It is called pg_comparator, a tool for network and time efficient database table content comparison.

see http://www.coelho.net/pg_comparator/ for the perl implementation.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


No such thing as a small change
